Description
Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre criticizes Liberal governments high-speed rail plan, vowing to scrap it if elected. The project, with a price tag of $60-90 billion, aims to connect Toronto to Quebec City, reducing travel time significantly. However, rural communities, particularly farmers, express concerns about land grabs and lack of consultation. Poilievre argues its a waste of resources, comparing it to the faster construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway a century ago. The debate intensifies as election talk escalates.
